It still doesn't look promising for the Edmonton Oilers.
McDavid and Drai still run this team with some help from RNH.
The bottom six scoring needs to be present this year for the Oilers to even make a dent in the standings.

Edmonton shipped off Lucic for Neal this offseason. The change of scenary could do some good but if Neal can't regain his scoring capacity, the swap is a wash.

What to do with Pool Party? Sign him? Trade him?
I have no idea what they're going to do but hypothetically let's say they do reach an agreement to a contract and he plays 2-3rd line all year.

Bouchard: I think there's a good chance he makes the team this year. I wouldn't even be surprised if we see him playing top-four minutes this year. He's talented and can probably imrpove this team right away.

Smith: as a backup he's fine, but Edmonton is relying heavily on Koskinen after the extension he signed last year.
